Photobucket



It's that time again! You know what time I'm talking about. The time when Dazee at Crazy Daze and Night Dreams and I decide to have a little fun with our mad photo taking skills. Oh nevermind, I said that last week. You know what to do! Snap the photo, upload to your blog, then share the link. It's simple! Now get with it!

Next week's categories are "House" and "Your Choice".

Electric

I was a bit stumped by this one at first. Then I came up with the brilliant idea of shooting an electrical box. Yeah, I know. I'm the only one that would think of that.

Your Choice

On Memorial Day, we all got together at the houseboat and cooked out. My granddaughter kept wanting to go from the top deck to the bottom deck. My son was being kind enough to help me....ONCE AGAIN!!! She loves her uncle!

1 Resorts, Photos, and Rumors

On Thursday, my daughter, granddaughter, and I met my brother at a conference center he and his family were staying at about 2.5 hours from where we live. We had such a blast. It is a huge place that is basically a resort area. It has reportedly been a hideout for some of the gangsters from the Chicago area.

This is the supposed inn the gangsters stayed in.

The resort is on a huge lake so boats and scenery is all around you.

Then we were taken on a drive around the 1,100 acre property. This is the oldest structure on the property. Apparently a couple raised 7 children here. They used two different homes to do so.

I had to take this one through the window. The building was locked up and we couldn't get inside.

It was really cool seeing the hand hewn logs that made up someone's home.

I love seeing old buildings and I think I may have to go back to this particular place to get photos. There was just too much to see.

7 Tuesday and Twitter Trains!

Photobucket



I have to say it's getting better at work. I am getting better in that I'm not having to ask so many questions of the guys as I was the last couple of weeks. My memory is beginning to come forward as things are starting to be recalled without a lot of effort. There are so many items in that store it can be mind boggling. At least I'm feeling a little more secure. I hope the bosses are feeling like they didn't make a huge mistake. So far, so good. Now on to more fun things.

The Train is in the station so let's get started with Shellie at Shellie Sakai, and Jen at The Survival Mama for the train ride. I know they are excited to get started and so am I.

And for those of you who love to take and share your own photos, Dazee, at Crazy Daze and Night Dreams, co-hosts a photo hop with me on Thursdays. You should check it out and link up with us. We would love it. Grab the button and show us what you see behind your lens. This week's categories are "Electric" and "Your Choice"

17 Scavenger Hunt Sunday



I had last minute photos to upload. My inspiration was just not there this week. Now let's go photo hopping with Ashley at Ramblings and Photos! Come on! You know you want to!

Beneath Your Feet

My daughter, granddaughter and I met my brother and his family in a town about 2.5 hours from where we live. It had been a while since we had all been in the same vicinity. This was just one of the odd photos I took.

Capturing Movement

My brother was trying so hard to get my granddaughter to join in the fun. The statue was meant to let live people capture the movement of the piece.

Texture

I know that technically it may not be "texture" but I think the windows give depth to the photo.

Facing Your Fears

Don't they look like they're afraid?

Currently

This storm blew through about 3pm today (Saturday). It was so dark and then the torrential rains came down. It was so bad that the street was flooded just past the entrance to our store.
